I contacted John Knox to find out my options to resolve a property issue and find out my options. The outcome for me was very favorable and did not result in going to court. Not only is John very knowledgeable about property law, he was also accessible and always returned my text and emails the same day, or more often within an hour or two of being sent. This was a stressful time for me but John reassured me I had a strong case and PA property law was on my side. I was very pleased with this firm and feel lucky that John Knox was my lawyer. If it's property related, I would not contact anyone other than this Law firm. William Foley2025-03-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I unfortunately had to reach out to Sebald, Hackwelder, & Knox recently for a case that turned into from a mental health check for my ex-SO. I had/have no criminal history and Mr. Sebald walked me through the play by play and was able to get it completely dropped.
